    Wowee wow wow... a set of AWS services went down today. Quite alarming, especially as companies move more to cloud-based infrastructure.

    They're not talking about why. Did they get hacked? Was there a breach? What happened?

    With all their talk of availability zones, regions, security, etc... the whole thing went down like a fat kid on a see-saw.

    Diversify your cloud investment, my peeps!

  3. If they don't talk then it's an indicator for ransomware attack.
